About Lupus & Vasculitis Clinic
The lupus and vasculitis clinic treats autoimmune diseases that can affect many organs, including the skin, joints, kidneys and blood vessels. Lupus often strikes women in their twenties and thirties.
Treatment suppresses the immune system and is guided by blood tests such as complement levels and anti-dsDNA, with close monitoring of the kidneys. Sun protection and regular follow-up are key.
